I’m John “FuzzFace” McMahon. - I pretend I know something about InfoSec. I tend to work on things that are important, but not very sexy. - I’ve been doing wide-area networking since before it was called “The Internet” (1985). I’m fucking old. I’m also still dangerous. - I’m just here to say dumb stuff. I tell terrible jokes and flirt with everyone. - I live somewhere near Washington, DC, USA. - Three continents down, four to go.

The SCA’s big event starts this weekend. I was a fixture there back in the day. Glad I’m not going anymore. I got tired of the politics and other BS. If you are going, I hope you have a safe and fun time. (1/2)

@alice@lgbtqia.space Do folks still walk around the outside/roof of the Space Needle. I’m starting to lose my fear about niche things like that.

Beginning to think that the Information Security profession needs to start seriously advocating that everyone invest in some form of secure, recoverable password keeping in case of death or disability. (1/3)

Just had a nice thought. Ukraine war ends with a huge military display of the victorious army marching down the main avenue of the vanquished capitol, flags fluttering in the breeze. Blue/Yellow Flags. They are marching through Moscow.

Another recommendation of someone who I like to buy from. At some point, @nora@blob.love will reopen her shop. I plan on buying several of her creations, you should as well. You should follow them now, and not be surprised by “sold out” later. https://blob.love/@nora/116868545916126235

@wendynather@infosec.exchange I hope you are nowhere near the wildfires. - My Colorado geography is terrible, so no idea where the fire is. - Don’t know where she is either.

(This is from Copilot) #GooseValue Here’s an original, R.E.M.–inspired rapid-fire, stream-of-consciousness song about the SoftBank goose meme—capturing that chaotic, breathless vibe without copying the original song. 🪿 “It’s the Goose, Not the Eggs (And I Feel Fine)” (Up-tempo, jangly, words tumbling over themselves) (1/8)

I get frustrated with organizations that have a VALID CAUSE (whether I support it or not) but then EMBELLISH THEIR STORY. Because, when discovered, you lose all credibility. (1/4)

Real life issues have been chewing my butt for some time now. As a result, I will be pulling back from a lot of my social media activities. I just don’t have the time, and I really need to focus on important real life things. My account will remain here, but basically you will have to @ me to get my attention. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I am curious if a post here will show up in Blogger properly using the stock RSS tool.

Answer to the previous question is to use a purpose built Mastodon feed tool, as mentioned here: https://netmbx.blogspot.com/2025/11/tweaks.html

Another wrong number ploy. Maybe I will string the next one along. There is always a next one. Why can’t it be a wrong number from like @wendynather or @LikeItOrLumpIt or @neurovagrant ? I think those would be fun phishing conversations.

Trying to figure out the logistics for attending BSides Delaware this weekend. Didn&#39;t plan to have a full weekend of other important things to do, nor a full weekend where all the important things are nowhere near homebase. Might be a &quot;bridge too far&quot; situation.

Still finding places where I stopped following someone and didn’t recover the mistake… Might have to dust off the followers program.
